Norcross, Ga. – The Integrated Technology Group (ITG), a division of Vernon Library Supplies, Inc., gained 19 new clients, acquired a patent by the U.S. Patent Office and added a new account manager in the fourth quarter of 2008. In addition, the ITG Scan & Print System was used by Equinox Software, Inc. to assist Indiana libraries in the migration to Evergreen, an enterprise-class, open source, integrated library system (ILS). The ITG Scan & Print System can re-label bar codes on items at a rate of more than 250 books per hour.

Patent for AV Xpress™
The U.S. Patent Office granted a patent for ITG’s self-service security case unlocking system, AV Xpress. The system supports Kwik Cases®, OneTime Cases™, and SecureCaseOne Cases™. AV Xpress works in tandem with Apex XpressCheck™ bar code, EM, and RFID-based self-checkout systems, as well as a free-standing release station that works with ITG’s Apex RFID and most other RFID vendors’ systems.

New Account Manager
Candice Gwin Oliver has joined ITG as the Central States Account Manager. Prior to joining ITG, Oliver served as the regional branch administrator for South & West Region for St. Louis County Library in St. Louis, Missouri. Oliver has also served as director of Library Services at Kirkwood Public Library. In addition, she worked as a software trainer for Sirsi Corporation (now SirsiDynix). In 2008, Oliver was selected by Library Journal as an “LJ Mover & Shaker” for her contributions to Kirkwood Public Library’s “Proposition L” campaign, which resulted in a tax levy that will provide for a full renovation of the existing property.
